  • Mulch is a protective layer of material applied to the top of your soil. This 2–4-inch barrier offers a multitude of benefits:

    • Weed Suppression: Mulch acts as a natural weed barrier, hindering weed seed germination and growth.
    • Moisture Retention: Mulch helps retain moisture in the soil, reducing watering needs and protecting plants during dry spells.
    • Temperature Regulation: Mulch insulates the soil, keeping it cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter, promoting healthy root growth.
    • Soil Enrichment: As organic mulch breaks down, it adds nutrients to the soil, improving its fertility.
    • Aesthetic Appeal: Mulch provides a clean, finished look to your flower beds and gardens.

Types of Mulch We Offer

Our mulch installation and cultivation include a variety of mulch types, categorized into inorganic and organic. Both types suppress weeds, but organic mulches improve soil health as they decompose. Inorganic mulches do not decompose but can warm the soil, benefiting heat-loving plants and vegetables.

Organic Mulch Options

  • Grass Clippings: Release nitrogen, potassium, and phosphorus as they break down, enriching the soil. However, they can attract pests.
  • Cocoa Hulls: Contain nitrogen, phosphate, and potash, boosting soil vitality. They may attract pests when wet and develop mold in hot climates.
  • Wood Shavings: Reduce the need for water and fertilizer but can block airflow, leading to root rot and fungus growth.
  • Straw: Builds healthy soil and regulates moisture and temperature, but may contain seeds that produce weeds.
  • Bark Chips: Absorb water well and last a long time, making them ideal for dry landscapes. However, decomposing bark may deplete the nitrogen in the soil.
  • Pine Straw: Easy to spread and helps control erosion, but needs frequent replacement and can attract pests.

Inorganic Mulch Options

  • Stones: Effective for rock and cacti gardens, stones keep weeds at bay longer but raise soil temperatures and do not aid soil health or plant growth.
